             Summary: AWS Credentials Provider service doesn't support credentials_process 
                 Key: NIFI-8918
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8918
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Peter Thomas


The current AWS Credential Provider uses a credential provider chain which excludes the Profile Process Credentials provider.

Please add a provider which supports [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaSDK/latest/javadoc/com/amazonaws/auth/profile/internal/ProfileProcessCredentialsProvider.html] .

The only key configuration parameter for this provider would be the AWS Config name.

Alternatively, add the ProfileProcessCredentialsProvider to the chain for the default, so that in addition to looking in ~/.aws/credentials for hard-coded credentials by profile name, you are also [perhaps first] executing the process configured in the ~/.aws/config credential_process variable for the requested profile.
